F'rlT tJ,Jme anzto WITH WHICH " THE TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED. LONDON : MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 25, 1838. The Tory Papers for the last few days have been heaping all sorts of abuse on Marshal Sourr, who has been se lected to represent his Sovereign at the ensuing Coronation. The Quarterly .Review led the way in this disgraceful con duct, and the Tory Journals, imitating the example, instead of welcoming this illustrious individual to our shores in a Manner befitting the occasion, and in accordance with the generous and hospitable character of the British people, hav e raked up old stories that had long been forgotten, Published a list of the Marshal's defeats, and altogether shown a bitterness of feeling, and a spirit of hostility to th e French, which the Duke of WELLINGTON, whose cause they pretend to espouse, would be the very last person to participate in. They justify such ungene rous conduct, because some French Journal has lately renewed pretensions to a victory at the battle of Toulouse, and the Minister of Finance has placed 401. at the disposal of the Mayor of that town, in aid of a monument to be erected in honour of the battle of the 10th of April, 1814. le honour never due to a vanquished army ? The Duke of WELLINGTON knows that the French troops fought With : honour, (speaking in the military sense of the word,l 4 t Toulouse. VOLTAIRE awards more honour to the Eng lish divis;en in the battle of Fontenoy, than to the French who gained ae victory. SOULT, himself, erected a monument at Corunna, to honour, not to insult, the memory of Moone, and, though we g ained the battle of Toulouse, the victory was not of so decided a character as to prevent the French from indulging their patriotism in erecting a monu ment to honour that army which gave 'WELLINGTON more hard fighting than any he ever encountered in Spain. But even admitting that some of the trench claim the victory, can that claim not be refuted without insulting SouLT and the French nation? Offensive language was not necessary to settle the ques tion, but that would not suit the purposes of the writers who gladly seized this opportunity to indulge their spleen against the dynasty of Lours PHILIPPE. The French know, however, from what quarter the offence comes, and steed not be surprised. It is quite in keeping with the cha racter of the more violent of that party who hate the very n a me of Reform, and who naturally hate that people, who, i n July 1830, rose as one man against their op- Pressors, and gave an impulse to the spirit of Reform in Great Britain, which, we are not ashamed to say, enabled us to carry the great Act of l 83?. Marshal Sourer will duly estimate the value of such attacks, and we are quite sure that the people of this country, from the highest to the lowest, will soon convince him, that those who would Perpetuate a spirit of hostility between England and France, are indeed the " miserable remnants of a broken faction." If an y great ceremony were to take place in France, at whi c h our QUEEN was desirous of being represented by tile most distinguished warrior in her empire, she would undoubtedly select the Duke of WELLINGTON. On the same principle Lours PHILIPPE has selected Marshal Sourr, the most illustrious French warrior living, and a man, like the Duke of WELLINGTON, also eminent for great civil services, to do honour to our QUEEN'S Corona tion. If the French daily press, or the Duke's enemies at P ar is, were to assail him with scurrility, and were to rake u p all kinds of circumstances which would tell against him, unpleasant in France, though passed away for a quarter of a century, and he bad since, by his prompt a cknowledgment of Lours PHILIPPE, done much to atone for his former enmity, the Tory jour nals would condemn the humble daily press of Paris as act ing most unworthily. It would be said to cast a slight on him who was, on account of his worth, selected by his own Sovereign to do honour to Lours PHILLIPE, and in slight ing the Duke was dishonouring our ou n Sovereign. The Tory journals would condemn such conduct though it were Practised only by the lowest portion of the Paris press ; out in this case the boasting Quarterly Review, the great journal of the Church and of the preux Tories, the Much read and much lauded Times, and the lady Post, th e very perfume of the press, the pinks of all Tory jour nals, are those who perpetrate an enormity which they would condemn if perpetrated against our own illustrious warrior hY the meanest scribblers of Paris. They insult our own QUEEN by slighting the warrior selected to honour her. Their only excuse is, that some of the poor scribblers of Paris have taken this opportunity to vaunt a little of Pranc e and French deeds, and our own great Tory writers ar e so little assured of our nationel merits that they cannot tolerate this little vanity in the French, but must hasten to commit ten times as great an outrage against decency and good taste as ever was committed by La Presse. Sir GEORGE MURRAY is known to write in the Quarterly Review. This is a subject similar to those on which he has in that journal exercised his pen ; there appears also in the article a general order, signed by him, as if he had supplied it ; and unless Sir GEORGE MURRAY t herefore frees himself from the suspicion, the world will suppose that the ex-Tory Cabinet Minister and ex- Quarter-Master-General is the perpetrator of the most disgraceful article to the Press of Great Britain, on account of i ts appearing at this moment, which has for a long time "Ppeared in any periodical. A Sund a y Paper announces that Mr. HANBURY TRACY 1 : to b e e l evate d to t h e P eerage on tin? Coronation. We W ave Anne reason to beiiovp that this is correct, as a Cor respondent from Monmouthshire has expressed his regret that the like honour is not bestowed on Mr. HANDURY LEIGH, the Lord Lieutenant of Monmouth, and the head of Mr. HANBURY TRACY'S family. He complains, in fact, of the Ministers for not attending to their own interests in Monmouthshire, and asserts that the non-promotion of the leading Whig there begets indifference to Whig. principles. Monmouth is the only county of England of which the Lord Lieutenant is a Commoner ; and to raise Mr. H. LEIGH to the Peerage would strengthen the Whi g in terest in the county. Men are fascinated by high rank and many lukewarm and doubtful supporters, who would be regardless of the Commoner, would be secured by c smile from the Peer. The Monmouthshire Liberals, who have under many disadvantages ousted one Tory from the county, and have again and again since the Whigs came into office successfully contested the bo rough, deserve from the Ministers that their Lord- Lieutenant should be ennobled, if he would accept the honour. It is not so much for his sake, whom all the Liberals of Monmouthshire respect, that the honour ought to be bestowed, as for their sake who would be convinced, by the promotion of their Lord- Lieutenant, that the Ministers appreciated their services in the cause of Reform. Sir Sons WaoTTEsLEv, Mr. PAUL METHUEN, and Mr. HANBURY TRACY, will, we believe, be the three English Peers. The following notice was yesterday posted in the Ca• tholic Chapels of the London district : " To all the faithful Clergy and Laity of the London District. " Dearly beloved Brethren and Children in Jesus Christ—Whereas it has pleased our beloved and most gracious Sovereign to appoint Thurs. day, the 28th instant, for the solemnity of her Coronation, the said day being the Vigilpf SS. Peter and Paul, and observed in the Catholic Church as a solemn fast ; and whereas the penitential exercises of such fast are inconsistent with the public rejoicings suited to this happy, auspicious, and national solemnity ; being anxious that the Catholic body, which yields to none of her Majesty's subjects in loyalty and attachment to her sacred person, should not, on this joyful occasion, be less forward than others in their external manifestations of the same, we, the undersigned, exercising the power vested in our hands for edification, do hereby declare anti publish, that the obligation of abstinence and fasting on Thursday, the 28th of the present month, is dispensed with in favour of all the faithful in the London district; and that the said obligation is transferred to Wednesday, the 27th instant, which we do hereby order to be observed as a solemn fast, in lieu of, and for the same intentions as, the general fast appointed by the Church for the following day. " We exhort you, dearly beloved brethren and children in Jesus Christ, to offer up your fervent prayers and penitential works on the 27th instant, to obtain for our youthful and beloved Queen a long, prosperous, and happy reign, with every spiritual gift, which may en able her to extend its glories beyond the limits of this short life. " ' The charity of God, and the communication of the Holy Ghost, be with you all, brethren.—Amen.' " THOMAS, Bishop of Olena, " Vicar Apostolic of the London District. "London, June 21, 1838." Her MAJESTY'S Catholic subjects are prompt in de monstrating their loyalty and affection. They owe her and owe the State no particular gratitude, for the State af fords them only a stepmothers protection. There are other sects, however, in the empire established as the religion of the State which owe it much grati tude for the favour and affection with which they are regarded, and some of the members of which have nevertheless gone out of their way to fix that day for celebrating their religious festivals. They wish apparently to abstract the public attention from her MAJESTY, and divide the public homage with her. A few days ago there appeared an Advertisement in the Papers of the proceed ings at Cromarty, and within the County Hall there, on the 14th day of June, 1838, in a meeting of the Inhabitants of the town and county of Cromarty, Major GEORGE GUNN MuNao, of Poyntzfield, Convener of the County of Cro marty, in the Chair— It was then resolved that the inhabitants orthe town and county of Cro many deprecate the conduct of the Minister and Kirk Session of Cro marty, in fixing the day appointed for the Coronation of her Majesty Queen Victoria as a Fast Day preparatory to dispensing the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper. It was also resolved that it is highly unbecoming for any Clergyman of the Church of Scotland to appoint a day for a Fast whici, had previously been set apart for all loyal and patriotic subjects celebrating the Corona_ tion of our beloved Queen. What a contrast does this offer between the vo luntary loyalty of the unpaid non-established Catholic Clergy of the metropolis, and the stubborn, officious, med dling, disloyal zeal of the Presbyterian priest, who thrusts forward unnecessarily and uncalled-for his own religious ceremonies on a day set apart for her MAJESTY'S Coro nation ! The gentlemen of Cromarty bad a proper sense of his impertinence, and justly chastised his officiousness. If laymen of all sects 'throughout the country were to imi tate the Cromarty gentlemen, and show themselves less priest-ridden than they are, society would gain immensely by the change. That the apprenticeship system cannot be abolished too soon is evident by the following extract of a letter from SAMUEL OUGIITON, Baptist Missionary, dated Lucca, Jamaica, May 15, 1838, directed to Mr. JOSEPH STURGE. Such melancholy narratives justify to the full the agitation got up by the humane people of England, and ought to stimulate them to continue their exertions. They supply additional reasons too why her MAJESTY'S Ministers should not for one moment cease to impress on the planters the propriety of acceding to the wishes of the nation, and of abolishing the apprenticeship as the only means of securing their own safety : On my return home last evening from the Court House, Susan Mackenzie, of Coventry and Great Valley Estate (the property of Robt. Hibbert), came to me, hav:ng been thirteen hours crawling a similar number of miles, that she might tell me her tale of woe. It appears that ever since the apperanee of your book, in which her case is mentioned, the rancour against this poor defenceless creature has burst forth with increased fury. Just after its first appearance, she was taken up, and confined in the hot-house for several days, although she had no sick ness, save the excessive weakness and almost blindness, brought on by her inhuman tormentors during the martial law of 1632. Oh, Sir, had you heard her relate her simple tale of misery, as I did last evening, it would have made your heart bleed. And could the poor creature's back, which was not healed up in less than five years after her flogging, and which is even now a horrid spectacle, be seen by British Christians, I am sure all England would arise, and with a voice too mighty to be resisted, demand the immediate extinction of the last vestige of a system which could ever tolerate such barbarities on a poor defenceless 11. male. But to my 'tory : It 1 'pears that last Thursday her busha passed by a stream where she was fishing a few c!othes. He immediately ordered her to be taken up, 1 ked her in the estate dungeon for several hours, and afterwards removed her into the strong room, where she was detained a solitary prisoner until Sunday afternoon, during which time the overs7er gave her nothing but one pint of oatmeal, and on her liberation told her that unless she went to the field to work he would keep on punishing her. This I urn certain she cannot do; her health and strength are com pletely ruined by her sufferings; she complains of constant pain in the stomach, and is nearly blind from the effects of the flogging. If some thing cannot be done to put a stop to these persecutions I fear she will soon fall a victim to them. Poor creature, she is an interesting and very delicate woman ; a person of unaffected piety, and has been for nearly twelve years an honourable and conscientious member of soy Church at Gurney's Mount. The following is the statement in " The West India in 1837," Appendix, second edition, page 405 : Coventry Estate, the property of Robert Hibbert—Susan Ma. ckenzie, an apprentice, says, that during the rebellion she was sent for because she was a great Baptist woman.' They tried to make some men swear against her to hang her, but did not succeed ; and because she would slot say anything against Mr. Burchell, three mess, with three new cats, were ordered to flog her. They gave her about three hundred lashes, and she remained in the workhouse for about three months. On the Ist of August, 1834, the Attorney, Mr. Grant, said she must go into the field. She said she was not able, and showed him her back ; but he said that was nothing, and for her refusal she was sent three times to the workhouse; they then allowed her to cook for the children, which is her present employment. This woman is an individual of superior intelligence for her station, and bears a very high character as a person of amiable and mild disposi. Lion, and consistent in her deportment as a professor of religion. She is almost blind from the effects of flogging; the upper part of the back is covered with white patches, where the rete mucosum has been en tirely obliterated by the horrid punishment described above. Speaking of the condition of the apprentices in Coventry, she said, that the people are compelled to do task work in the field, and so much is givers them that they cannot finish it, though they work from sun rise to dusk without intermission. Their breakfasts are cooked for them, and they eat them in the field without sitting down. If there is a patch left they are compelled to finish it on the Saturday. The magistrates won't hear what they have to say. They receive no salt fish. By the arrival of Royal Tar steamer, at Falmouth, from the Tagus, we have received advice; from Lisbon to the 19th inst. inclusive. The intelligence they bring is painfully important ; namely, the details of another attempt to effect a revolution by the assassination of the KING, the ViiCOUDt DE SA DA BANDEIRA, and his ministerial colleague in the War Department. The substance of this disgrace ful transaction may he given in a few words. The 13th and 14th inst., are observed asreligious festivals in Portugal, the first being the anniversary of St. Antonio, patron saint of Lisbon, and the second the Catholic festival of Corpus Christi, which is celebrated with processions in most Catholic countries. On the 14th the KING, in accordance with immemorial usage, attended the procession, but no violence was offered him till his return to the door of the Cathedral, when he was assailed with the vilest epithets by the mob, the Constitution of 1820 without alterations called for, and violent atttnipts made to prevent him from getting into his carriage. Previously to this a mob had collected in the Cathedral-square, where a military band was p l ay i n g the anthem of Dolitia. MARIA, and furiouily shouted for the 'evolutionary hymn of 1820. This demand was complied with, whereupo n th e 7th bat talion of National Guards and several other sections of " that body joifie.4 the rioters, shouti ng 6. Long live • THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, JUNE 25, 1838. the Constitution of 1820 !" A rush was nov made towards the Cathedral, with a view as was seriously believed of assassinating the KING if he offered any opposition to the demands of these ruffians. Fortunately the 2d Regiment of Cagadores were in attendance, and evinced such a de termination to preserve the KING, that the mob was pre vented from getting his person into their hands. tie entered his carriage protected by the swords of his guards, ant drove off at a rapid pace. The mob, now furious with rage an] disappointment, caught sight of the Ex-Minis- to M. JOSE DA SILVA CARVALIIO, and had it rt;:t been for the promptitude of M. COSTA CABRAL, th e Civil Governor, they would have murdered him on the spot. Shouts of " Death to the tyrant" were raised on all sides ; and in a struggle to open the door of the ex-Minis ter's coach, his life was only preserved by the intrepidit) of the Civil Governor, who coolly discharged a pistol at the head of one of the ruffians, which had the effect o f throwing his companions into some confusion. The coach, surrounded by the rabble, stopped in the Rue dos Fauguei ros, when the Viscount Da Sa BANDEIRA appeared at the head of some municipal guards, and commanded the mob to disperse. While he was in the act of speaking, one of the ruffians made arush Upon him, exclaiming " you are asgreat a traitor as they," and struck him so violent a blow on the breast with a bayonet, that the Viscount fell in the opinion of the by-standers mortally wounded. Fortunately for him► the blow aimed with such a deadly intent was arrested by the Star of the Order of the Tower and Sword which he wore on his breast, so that after perforating the decoration, the bayonet merely inflicted a slight flesh wound. The 2d • Cacadores now made their appearance, and the mob quickly dispersed. Numerous patrols of cavalry and infantry were called out to preserve the peace of the capital. Several pieces of cannon were mounted in the Alcantara Square ; and, in the course of a few hours Lisbon presented the ap pearance of a city in a state of hostile occupation. The next day a Royal decree signed by the QUEEN commanded the dissolution of the 7th, Bth, 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th battalions of the National Guards of Lisbon, for having taken part in the revolutionary mettle which we have just described. Another decree authorized the authorities to take such measures they might deem requisite for seizing and punishing the ring -leaders. The following brief but pertinent observations upon this anarchical outrage are copied from the Lisbon Directory of the 18th inst.:— " It is unquestionable that a revolution was attempted, accompanied by the most hate! ul circumstances, by the assassination of the first au thorities of the State, and by insults to the religion of the Portu g uese, and the husband of their Queen. Everythin g shows that this revolution was prepared beforehand, and there are abundant indications against some of the authors, and proofs against many of the instruments which attempted to carry it into effect and what will the Government do in this case? What it will do we do not know, but what it ou g ht to do is to place the Constitution of the State and the safety of the citizens beyond the power of similar attacks, by severely chastising the guilty parties. To do this, it does not require the suspension of guaran tees, nor any extra legal acts, it already has the law and constitution, Which arm it with power and force necessary to meet extraordinary crises. And will the Government do this ? We know not. It has in deed already adopted some measures; but it is indispensable that these should not remain mere decrees on paper, and they should also be suc ceeded by others that circumstances imperiously call for. If the Govern ment act thus, we may yet hope to see order consolidated ; but if it al low itself to be overcome by foolish fears, its overthrow, and that of the Monarchy, is inevitable." The ;up o osed authors and instigators of this revolu- tionary movement are the notorious SENHORS Al ANTOS, FRANCA QUADROS, CHRISTINI, and the ex-Deputy LIONEL TAVERES. On the 18th warrants were issued by the Se cretary of State for their apprehension. Such at present is the state of things in Portugal. To put an end to these outrages, the Government must take effectual measures for curbing the licentiousness of the Lisbon anarchists. No course but a severe one will be productive of the least good in a capital in which nine tenths of the populace are brutally ignorant, even of the very principles of the Constitution for which they arc ready to shed the blood o f thei r S overe i gn . S o true it is that despotism first brutalizes a people, and, to the extent of their ignorance, disqualifies them for the calm enjoyment of free institutions. But with a little wholesome severity, a strong executive, and the diffusion of knowledge, the dark clouds which now obscure the political horizon of Portugal will clear away, and all be peace and security. We must again solicit the attention of the principals of commercial houses to the United Travellers and Mer cantile Association, the advertisement of which appears in our paper to-day. It is not intended, like private Assu rance Companies, to obtain a profit for the adventurers ; but to secure, at the least possible cost, whatever provision may be most suitable to the circumstances of the subscribers, or the circumstances of their families, on the extinction of their lives. The principals of commercial houses, by pro moting the success of such a Society, will contribute to strengthen habits of order and prudence in the persons they employ, and by securing them against want and temp tation, will have an additional guarantee of their honesty and their trustworthiness. At present it is too much the practice for travellers, as well as many other classes with fixed salaries, to live up to their incomes, and when any accident happens, their minds are tilled with apprehension. A pro ‘i,:ion of this kind would relieve them from anxiety, and would save them from some sickness, and promote their re covery when sickness overtook them. It would, in fact, prevent much incapacity to labour, by quieting the minds of those who took the precaution, for mental apprehension is a prolific source of bodily disorder. The principle of the Society, which has been formed on the requisitio n of numerous respectable commercial gentlemen, is that of mu tual insurance, and such Societies have the evident advan tage of actually preventing those misfortunes, for th e arrival of which they make provision. When a man knows that wh a tever happens to him, those who depend on his laboußs for support will be provided for, be is relieved from that anxiety which superinduces sickness and shortens life. It is we believe an established fact resulting from this principle that insured li ves are better than the average of lives, and insurance offices gain by this circumstance those advantages which in this case the mutual insurers will share amongst themselves. The Society, which has so many merits of its own, i s s lid, we hope unjustly, to have adopted plans from others, which they cherish as meritorious inventions ; anj may i:ivolve it in' a controversy which is better avoided. Letters and papers from Madrid to the 16th instant in clusive have reached us, but their contents are of no political importance. Colonel MALLoLs, who was made prisoner with his division by BALMASEDA, sad subsequently delivered, will be tiled by a Court Martial for neglect of duty on the night of his capture. A British officer would assuredly be shot under such circumstances. The QUEEN did not join the procession of the Host on the festival of Corpus Christi, as was previously the custom of the Sovereigns of Spain. Her Majesty attended pri vately the celebration of Mass at the Royal Chapel. The reports from the provinces are favourable. German and Brussels Papers have been received this morning, from which the following are extracts : 1 - limns7no, JGsu 19.—The magistrates have just issued a notice that the King will arrive here on the 21st, on his way from Luneburg to liar burg.

JUNE 15.—The Emperor of Russia took leave of their Majesties a little before twelve on Tuesday the 12th, long before the conclusion of the splendid ball given in his honour. Not only the Grand Duke, his eldest son, but our King and Crown Prince, accompanied him from the Palace on board a Royal brig which conveyed them to the Russian steam-boat Hercules, where they remained an hour, the two Sovereigns giving each other the most marked proofs of esteemed friendship. The Grand Duke remained on board the Hercules some time longer, and then took leave of his father and the two young Princes his brothers, on which the Hercules weighed anchor and prnce.ded direct t o P e t ers b urgh.

On Friday a Royal ordinance was read in the Chamber of Peers, commanding that assembly to constitute itself a Court of Justice for the trial of M. LAITY, an ex-Lieutenant of Artillery, for the publication of a pamphlet, purporting to contain an historical narratil e of the events of the 30th of October, 1836, entitled, " Prince NAPOLEON in Strasburg." A debate on the competence of the Chamber to obey the ordinance fol lowed, but the decision was postponed. In the mean time the liberal journals condemn as not only absurd but dangerous the course adopted by the Government, and we must add not without great reason. If libels are to be referred for judgment to the Chamber of Peers, under the plea of inciting to treason, there is an end to the boasted inviolability of the Constitution of 1830. The Five per Cents. Bi!1 was the st.bject of a long de bate in the Chamber of Peers on Saturday. Subjoined are the only extracts of any interest to be found in these Journals : SPANISH FRONTIERS. (Private Correspondence of the Constittitionnel.) DX:RON°, JUKE 15.—Dun Carlos is at Tolosa, where he has col leeted 10 battalions and 150 cavalry. It is said that General Marotto refuses to accept the chief command. The squadrons of Leon el Conde have overthrown a detachment of Carlist horsemen who attempted to get po , session of the Port of Alto. Espartero is still at Haro. He pro bably delays commencing his operations till Oraa has attacked Cabrera. BAYONNE, JUNE 19.—Don Carlos, leaving Tolosa on the 15th in the morning, stopped at Villa Franca, and stopped that night at Bergara. On the 16th, at five o'clock, lie set out for Ellorrio, where he has for the present taken up his abode. Guerque has left Ciranqui, and gone to Echauri. Brigadier General Carmona is at Zugurrarnurdi, with several Carlist officers of engineers, who are tracing lines of fortifications on the iron. tier, where there have been same disturbances. There is no official article in the Moniteur of June '25. M. Laity was removed yesterday to the prison of the Luxemburg, where it is probable he will remain during the whole of the preliminary proceedings. We were mistaken in announcing the arrest of M. Thomassin, the printer. Only search was made in his premises, and half a dozen copies of H. Laity's pamphlet found there. A letter from Oran informs us that Lieutenant-Gencral Rapatel was at that time (June 13), very ill, and woujd go to Algiers. Abdel Rader had returned to his favourite town, Tekedemta. He was carrying on the works with considerable activity, being desirous of having a fortress. The Emir has returned in a very bad plight from his expedi tion against Achinet, the Bey of Constantine.

" So shaken as we arc, so wan with care, Find we a time for fright ed peace to past, And breathe short winded accents of new broils To be commenced in islands afar remote." SUIKSPEARE. Passing events are undoubtedly pregnant with much weal or woe to the people of Ireland ; and, however peaceably and full of hope they may be at the present moment, they are nevertheless feelingly alive to the anticipated consequences of the three important Bills now before the Legislature, should they become law without further alteration. The Poor.law will be welcomed with that sort of distrust that accom. panics a stranger who has not the good fortune to bring with him many flattering recommendations from the countries which he last visited, but whose purposes are understood to be friendly. It is re garded as a medicine, which the patient is compelled to take, however apprehensive he may be as to the good or evil effects of its operation, and like the drug, no doubt, much will de peed upon the quantity, and the skill exhibited in its administration. Tise Corporation Bill, as passed by the House of Commons, will gener al afford satisfaction, even though the franchise should be ex tnded by the Lords to ten pounds in a few of the larger towns. But it is impossible to say, how the tithe measure in contemplation, will be received —or what will be its effects on the peace and prosperity of the rural population of Ireland. I have long ago informed you that Lord John Russell's resolutions at the commencement of the session, did not M ee very favourable impressions on th e p ar ti es i ntereste d th ere i n, pro, and the numerous meetings, that have since been held, confirm my statements. The 8.11 is now printed, and a ill, I dare say, be circulated by the Press within a few days through the entire country. And, I venture to predict, that the provisions of the sixth section will be pro ductive of any thing but content and satisfaction. By that section power is given to the landlords to recover the " rent. charge" to be but sub hs y latter, theobnoxious against st it u ted fur" tithe-ceruposition," aga i nst not only the persons now liable parties wh o h ave no t b een hith er t o vexe d or impost. The provi s ions are, that the land lord, becoming liable by this Bill, shall be en titl e d t o recover th e sa id rent-c h a rge, from " the most i mme di ate lessee holding under him; " an d the latter, if not now liable, shall be e n titl e d to recover the sauce from his next " immediate sub-lessee ; a n d so on, downwards, each lessee recovering from his sub_lessee." N ow t h is is the very thing that was all along apprehended, and which, In the pre sen t complex relation of landlor d a nd t e n a nt, un d er th e su b -letting system that still prevails in this coun tr y to a g reat extent, must be productive of the very worst pay harassed ti'e b consequences. Unless, therefore, the Irish Members shall apply them selves to the exposure of th e c ell consequenc es of this section, emd prevail on Gove rnment to modify it so as to relieve R oman C atholics at least, from it s hardship and oppression, I fear, the enti re measure will be a failure. If a proviso were introduced, authorising the l an dl or d , whose " immediate lessee," being a Catholic, paid no more than one half of the rea l value of the land, to receive compensation from th e St a t e or from the Ecclesiastical Board, instead of from his Catholic tenantry, I think it would work well, afford satisfaction, and not become onerous on the State or the Ecclesiastical Board. I have heard this view of the matter discussed by persons well acquainted with the tithe laws, condition of society, and the relation of landlord and tenant in Ireland, and the con clusion they came to was, that such a provision would approximate more to the very right and justice of the case, and to an equitable adjust. most of the question, than any thing hitherto suggested. I have not t ime now to enter into the calculations on which their conclusions rested ; a s the following facts illustrative of what have I have already said on the g eneral feeling respecting the measure have just com e t o my know ledge. There was another meeting in the county of Wexford on Tuesday last, called the meeting of " West Wexford," to consider the best means of averting the evils attendant on the present tithe system. It w,:s more numerously attended than any of the former meetings, and the Chairman on this occasion was a Magistrate of the name of Carey, heir at-law to the large estates of Sir Edward Loftus, Batt., and possessing, himself, considerable fee-simple property in the county. He has not hitherto taken a prominent part in politics ; but he stated that an im perative sense of his duty to his country, and his anxiety to see the neighbourhood in which he lives freed from the desolation of warfare under which, for some weeks past, it has been placed by the execution of the law of t ithes —compelled him to join Isis neighbours in supplicating the Legislature and Government to rescue them from the ruin impend. ing over their peaceful habits and industry. It appears that during the last three mo u th s that part of the county has been daily traversed by military amid police in large numbers, under the orders of the Sheriff, seeking for the persons and property of the inhabitants to satisfy the deli - mands of the tithe owners. The Chairman stated also that, anxious as he was to uphold the Reformed Church in Ireland, of which his father and grandfather had been Ministers, and to which himself, all his relations, and connexions still stedfas:ly adhered, he could no longer refrain from raising his voice against the unholy persecution in which its tempo ralities had now involver., it • . Not a single farmer in the surroundin g district kept his cattle on Isis own ground, or ventured to lie in his own bed, while the harpies of the law were scouring the county in search of their prey. The result was, that agriculture was neglected ; and th oug h famine and its awful consequences had threatened the people, they bail resolved not to pay tithes as a condition of repose. The proceodings of this meeting —at which resolutions against Tithes, An Vote by Ilallot, Sc., and ofconfidence in O'Connell, were unanimously adopted —will be fully reported in a day or two by the local Journals. In the meantime I give you its leading features, and have only to add, that a petition to her Majesty, from the landholders, traders, and other inhabitants Of the county of Wexford, has been sent by deputation, requesting her Majesty to confer the Peerage on that enlightened patriot Boyce, of Bannon, whose large fortune and exemplary life, spent in the acquirement of ""leilge, qui snores hominum snullorum, vmdit el urbc4, and the moral and Physical improvement of his tenantry and countrymen in general, entitle him to a seat iti that assembly of which he will be at once a pillar and an ornament.

COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. THE ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON. Most of the yachts already fisted cut have taken their departure fcr London, and several others will proceed thither in a clay or two, so tha' that they will probably muster at least thirty sail. We very rouet regret to find that the worthy Commodore (the Earl of Yarborough` is confined on board his yacht Kestrel in Cowes Roads from illness, an, will not be able to attend the Coronation in consequence. ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE. A new cutter yacht, of 70 tons, built for NVilliam Dclafield, Esq was launched from Mr. J. White's yard en Saturday. She was Dame° the Naiad. Four candidates are to be ballotted for the next general meeting of the members, at the Squadron House, on the 13th of July. The Sccrc.

Wotton Cottage, the residence of Mr. Georg.. Brannon, the Cl le brated artist, whose views of the Island have been so generally admired, was destroyed by fire on Friday morning. It is supposad to have originated from the chimney, and was discovered about 11 o'clock. The fire engines from Newport were early on the spot, but from their ineffieknt state, and the violence of the wind, they were of but litt'e service, the valuable copperplates, type, and part of the furniture was saved. The property was insured in the " London." The celebration of the Coronatio❑ in this town is likely to do it credit. All the poor families in it are to be furnished with beef, bread, vegetables, and strong ale; meat of the best quality is ti be sent to each house. The children of the different schools, 700 in number, will be provided with refreshments In Bannister's Rope Grounds. The Town. hall, and the Royal Yacht Squadron House will be lighted with varie gated lamps. The tradesmen have agreed to close their shops and ware houses, and entirely suspend business during the day. There are to be public dinners at the different inns, a ball at the Town-hall, bonfires, &c , &c. What will the Tories of Newport and Southampton say to this ? Shame on their miserable party-spirit, they cannot make merry even on such a day as this!

MORRISON V. MITCHELL. The only question in this case was, whether the respondent, a, ict,;ee of the tolls leviable at the Toll-bar, on the Kerse Turnpike Road, was entitled under the provisions of the Stirling hire Tull Act to recover from the appellants the penalties imposed on persons evading the pay. Inert of those tolls. The following are the short facts of the case. The company ofproprietors of the Ft Rh and Clyde canal, having establistr passage boats for the convenience of passengers from Grangemouth to Glasgow, found it expedient in order to avoid the delay of the boat; passing through a great numbes of locks, to make them commeticzarq conclude their passage on the canal at one of the locks instead of d t Grangemouth, and for the accummodathm of passeneers thf, g pan) , established coaches to convey them and their lug. age between Grangemouth and that leek, The api , ellants; were the own -rs or drivers of some of those coaches, and by th? permission of the Company they travetled upon the towing, path of the Canal from Grangemouth to itainsfurd bridge; from th.-,,ce they went upon a road not subject to Turnpike Trusts, to Falkit-k 1,, performing these journies they crossed the Turnpike road, i n (pies. tion, at a place called Dalg,rwii, which the respor%lents contended subjected then to Tull * , or t h e penalties for attempting to evade them. Upon the ease coming betbre the Co ur t of Session, their Lordships decided that the respondent was entitled to recover the pe nalties, and ordered the appellant to pay the eosts. From that decision the present appeal was brought. Mr. Jas. RosseLL appeared for the appellants, w.td Mr.: THAVP for the respotidcnts. Tito LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the argurnenta, ordered the interlocutor appealed from to be an iced. ELECTION FOR SligitlFFS. Midsummer day Is the usual day for the election of the Sheriffs ()- London and Sheriffof Middlesex, As it fell this year upon Suridav, the GMMOII Hall was held this day at one o'clock. The LeLet Mayor, accompanied by most of the Aid, rmen, appeared on the platform and were received 4,ith cheers. The Ciatirt having beCn opened in the usual formal manner, The LORD Mal , att said it had been usual for the R. corder to address them upon the proceedings of Midsummer Day, but as he was absent freer) a severe domestic) affliction, he (the Lord Mayor), ould only say that they had met to exercise one of their best privileges --the election of their own officers. He would not detain them, as he was sal.iSfied that they would do their duty with discretion. The COMMON-SERGEANT then came forward and said, the election of their own officers had belonged to the livery of London since before the Conquest. It was then confirmed, and had remained so till the present eay, and be trustee that whatever might be the changes made by the pre. sent oc any G , :vernment, he trusted that they would always retain such a righL—(cheers.) He then read over the names of those gentlemen who were in nomination for the office or Sheriff; Mr. Deputy STEVENS then came forward and said he was one who did not think that the office of Sheriff' should be a political one, but he fou'.d the name of Ambrose Moore in the list submitted to them—a name which stood first to the petition presented to the House of Commons against the return of their four Members —(Cheers and hisses.) He did Lot think that he was deserving of their suffrages. Mr. FEARON then came forward to propose that the citizens should elect two gentlemen or integrity to fill the office of Sheriff Two of the entlemen submitted to them Lad never served any office; the ()tiler two lied served the city long and faithfully, they were now :.lagistrates, and were 'willing to serve, if elected, to the office of Sheriff: He did not appear before them as a political partisan, because there were many matters upon which he disagreed with Mr, Alderman Thos. Wood, but he knew him to be an honest and intelligent man, anti had acted as a Common Counvilumn anti as a magistrate in a praiseworthy manner, and he trusted they would select him as a gentleman worthy to fill the office a: Sheriff: His election would do honour to them as well as to him. Mr. PERRIN spoke in favour of Messrs. Wilson and Moore, who would serve the citizens as faithfully as any gentlemen that would be selected, and were entitled to the honour from their long standing as merch.tuts in the city. Mr. Deputy Tisos came forward to propose Mr. Alderman Johnson, and he did so upon this ground—that he was the senior Alderman who lied not passed the office, and it was necesst ry he should do so in order to ;uglify lihn for the Civic Chair, out of respect to the large ward he repre sented and to the Court of Aldermen, they ought to elect him, and he trusted they would do so. Mr. Johnson was willing to serve the office in, any iva7 that he could, and therefore if the show of hands was against him it was his (Mr. 'Tar's) intention to demand a poll in behalf of the Ilan. and worthy Alderman. Mr. E. WILS3N thought it would be unwise to elect the two Aldermen at the pres en t time, as many improvem en t s were being tra.le in the prisons of the county, and they might be called upon to carry out lin pr ovements as Sheriffs which they deprecated a, magistrr,res. The other two gentlemen who were emididates for the office wslrc intimately con tirN..ted with the trade of the city, and by the sweat of their brows had. arrived AC a state of competency es justified them In offering rh e , n ,a ves f: -. 4‘ the suftages of their fellow citizens. The Cryer then put the several names to the Hall, when for Alder man Johnston there was a considerable number of hands held up ; for Mr. Alderman Thomas Wood, there was a larger shew ; but Wilson aid Moore were decidedly the favourites, and they accordingly were de clared to be elected by the Sheriffs, amidst loud cheers. A poll was demanded on the part of the two Aldermen, and granted, The poll to commence to-day at three o'clock and go on from day tr., day, fir seven days. The Chamberlain was then re-elected, amidst cheering, The Brid7.e Masters and other officers were re-elected. and the Hall broke tip. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (Tuts W,V,) OLD EITURT.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY). __— CORN EXCHANGE. There was last week a fair return ofmost kinds of Grain for the Season of the year, and another good quantity of Oats from Ireland.

This morning, the fresh supply of N,VMat is good, and of other Col n moderate. '1 ha weather being now hot and fine, the milk.rs purchased very little Wheat, and the trade throughout the day has been very dull, prices needed to last Monday's tennis which are with e.illiculty obtained. Barley and Beans remain as last reported. Per.se are rather cheaper. The Oat trade has again become slack, not mur.l:, business has been done to-day, and prices remain as quoted last Monday.
